Unhappy Want to change things around, no more...

Hi,

I feel like I've had it with alcohol, its been slowly destroying my life, my last long term relationship ended because of it, right after I smashed my car into a light pole and got a DWI, it hurt my military career a big deal, limited my choices to pick a duty location, so I left active duty, moved back home in 09', where all my friends are drinkers so its hard to say no, started seeing someone else three years ago, and now its about to end because of alcohol...I feel like I need to stop now before I lose everything I have left...been sober since December 26th, I don't feel the need to drink, I just can't stop once I start...and go on 5-6 day binges every other week...its time to stop now

Welcome to SR!

My off switch was also broken. Now I don't have to worry about that anymore and so can you.

Well done on your 5 days If I'm counting right!
